Skillet - One Day Too Late Lyrics






Tick tock hear the clock countdown
Wish the minute hand could be rewound
So much to do and so much I need to say
Will tomorrow be too late

Feel the moment slip into the past
Like sand through an hourglass
In the madness I guess I just forget
To do all the things I said

Time passes by
Never thought I'd wind up
One step behind
Now I've made my mind up

Today I'm gonna try a little harder
Gonna make every minute last longer
Gonna learn to forgive and forget
'Cause we don't have long, gonna make the most of it

Today I'm gonna love my enemies
Reach out to somebody who needs me
Make a change, make the world a better place
'Cause tomorrow could be one day too late
One day too late
One day too late

Tick tock hear my life pass by
I can't erase and I can't rewind
Of all the things I regret the most I do
Wish I'd spent more time with you

Here's my chance for a new beginning
I saved the best for a better ending
And in the end I'll make it up to you, you'll see
You'll get the very best of me

Time passes by
Never thought I'd wind up
One step behind
Now I've made my mind up

Today I'm gonna try a little harder
Gonna make every minute last longer
Gonna learn to forgive and forget
'Cause we don't have long, gonna make the most of it

Today I'm gonna love my enemies
Reach out to somebody who needs me
Make a change, make the world a better place
'Cause tomorrow could be one day too late
One day too late
One day too late

Your time is running out
You're never gonna get it back
So make the most of every moment
Stop saving your best for last

Today I'm gonna try a little harder
Gonna make every minute last longer
Gonna learn to forgive and forget
'Cause we don't have long, gonna make the most of it

Today I'm gonna love my enemies
Reach out to somebody who needs me
Make a change, make the world a better place
'Cause tomorrow could be one day too late
One day too late
One day too late
One day too late
One day too late

Skillet One Day Too Late Comments
  1. j.... w....

    ive tried to understand, make what little time ive got count instead of keeping on with the crap that doesnt mean NOTHING! All that counts is the ones around you and the time with them that you cant ever get back, But I realize that people either dont want you change or just will never have faith that you can! Everyone is different and so is their choices, living situations and their way of living......just cause one person does the dishes one way doesnt mean thats the way everyone does em, just a example. But I am going to stop pleasing everyone else and just be the best me I can for me and My Family! Cause tomorrow could be one day too late!

    I saw Skillet two times in concert when I was 11 and then again at 12. Those were the best days of my life. Yeah i'm only 13, but I definitely prefer older music. A lot of people say that's weird.

    I love skillet their music is so powerful and meaningful I've been through so much I've even come close to killing myself many times. But by the grace of God I'm still here. God works in mysterious ways and I think he led me to their music to save my life.

    why do I feel this song.. the lyrics.. 🙁💔

  35. L.... B....

    Trevor Hane, This is dedicated to you. Last time I saw you, You smiled one of the biggest smiles at me and my mom. First time I met you, I called you a genius then your face lit up and you were shining. I even said you were as handsome as a poet and that’s what you talked like too. I know your in heaven smiling and happy as ever, flying around with big ole wings my precious friend. I’ll never forget the day we found out, you ran away from the psychiatric hospital you were checking into when your mental illnesses were getting worse, I feared and felt the worst, I even told my mom that I thought you were dead. My fear was confirmed a few nights ago when your mom Darby told me that you committed suicide by drowning in the river. My special friend, instead of saying Why, I’m gonna say that I’m happy that I got to be your friend 😊 You were a good man and you should be celebrated as such. Fly high Trevor Hane 2-13-19 You were gone too soon my angel Friend. I love you 😘
    Love Lindsey

    Thanks Youtube. When someone removes a video or it gets taken down, Youtube doesn't say what the video was, just that it's gone. So I started buying music on iTunes. And thus I found this song.

    I was one day too late to stop my mom from doing it. I remember it so clearly. I cried every day she was in the hospital, wishing she hadn't had that bottle of pills. And although she is OK, it still stings to know I can't see her.
